How to install the eSIM on your phone

A data eSIM card gives you access to the Internet on your device without including calls or SMS text messages. However, you can make calls or send messages through applications such as Skype, Whatsapp, Facebook Messenger, among others.

Data roaming occurs when you use a data connection outside of your carrier's coverage area.
In this way, your operator may charge you additional costs when using the mobile network of another geography outside your usual coverage area, incurring a bill with a huge cost without you realizing it.

Our eSIMs give you the freedom to be connected in the country you select efficiently, economically and without complications. Main advantages:

• Be connected to the internet in different countries without having to change the physical SIM card.
• Avoid the high international roaming charges that typically apply when using a local SIM card abroad.
• Save time, since it will not be necessary to search for a physical store to buy a physical SIM card or wait for activation.
• Avoid interacting with anyone when you arrive in your destination country and having to overcome the language barrier.

In case you are experiencing difficulties when trying to scan the QR code, we provide a checklist to help you easily identify and solve the problem:

3. Confirm if you have already scanned the QR Code: Please note that an eSIM QR code can only be scanned once. If you try to scan it repeatedly, you may get an error message like "Cannot add data plan." Check if the eSIM has been installed correctly by going to your phone's SIM card manager or settings.
